Just a Moment

Today I don’t really have a topic relating to the news or stuff that happened around the world. Well, of course there is stuff happening all around, but I just don’t want to write about all that at the moment!!

Right now I feel like writing about everything and nothing, but that would be a little hard to do, don’t you think?

It rained a little today in the evening, n for the small period of time that rain drops were falling on the ground, all I did, was look up at the sky and try to make out the shapes of the clouds. This is sort of my usual time pass when I don’t have much to do. Don’t you just love the fragrance of wet soil, that scent, which is spread everywhere just after it has rained? Well, I do.

Anyhow, across the street I saw a kid, who didn’t look older than 6 or 7, doing almost the same thing, although pretty soon his mother came and took him inside. Leaving me wondering what was that kid imagining when he looked up and how would it be different than what I thought I saw.

Its strange how when you grow up a little, you start to lose that stray imagination that we all were so proud of at one time. I used to have a very active imagination, I hope I still have it even though I know I am not that kid anymore. We all have to grow up sometime, after all, but that doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t enjoy ourselves once in a while.

Sometimes just forget everything, that bill that is still unpaid, work at the office that is still pending or the call that were supposed to get but still haven’t received. Pretend as if there’s no worry is bothering you and take a minute, maybe five, sit back, to appreciate and enjoy what you already have and all that you have accomplished. Try it, its really fun and fulfilling, and if you don’t have time, well, like I have said earlier, or like people always say, “you just don’t get time, you have to make a conscious effort for it”.

Well, to quote Nike, “Just Do it”.

Although I don’t believe that people don’t have time, I think that they are just wasting it, doing something that isn’t worthwhile or unnecessary. Don’t worry about what you did, or what will happen, because whatever you did, you possibly cannot turn back time and undo it, but what you can do is learn from it, understand what you did wrong. As for the future, well why worry about it? Just do what you have to do, give it your best shot and wait for things turn out for the best.

I believe everything that happens, happens for a reason, so I would suggest you to stop complaining or cribbing about what has happened and focus on what can be done, now and in future.

Worry or tension just takes away our piece of mind, doesn’t let us rest and take a breather. Most of the problems today are because people think way too much about the problem that’s troubling them, and not on focusing what should be done as a solution.

In today’s fast paced life, if you cannot mange to have a even a little bit of time, even on a Sunday, then just answer this little question of mine, are you really living or dragging along, waiting for life to come to an end? Well, if your answer is the latter one, its about time you do something to change that attitude!

Don’t over think, just let go. Smile every day, laugh a little, relax a bit and have some fun if you can. Believe me, it can make all the difference.
